SUMMARY:Recounting the Revolution: History and Meaning of Leutze’s The News of Lexington
DESCRIPTION:Best known for his iconic painting Washington Crossing the Delaware\, German-American artist Emanuel Leutze also painted other scenes of the American Revolution.

Recently conserved with support from the Wyeth Foundation of American Art\, the painting is now on display at the Lexington Depot.
